My double page spread is similar to NME as they both use black and white images and then a main image which is in colour. Even though it is a band that features in NME it is still the same concept of having the main singer in colour. On both double pages there is a stand first, a dropped cap and a by line which are the codes and conventions of a double page spread. Also the interview is in columns so the page looks blocked and is easy to read for the audience. On both pages there are grey boxes which show more information for the audience about the star for example about the album they both have out which gives the audience an insight into the band/artist just in case they don't know who they are or if they want to listen to them.
The differences between the double page spreads is that the name of my cover star is at the top of the page instead of over the main image but they are both bold and stand out from the rest of the writing to show that they are the name of the stars. Also I put my double page spread I put the masthead of the magazine at the top of the page to continue with the house style and so the audience can recognise it. On my double page spread I decided to put the stars twitter account on it at the end to show audience participation as the audience can follow them on twitter and find out more about them as more people are likely to have twitter than any other social networking site.
